The base fertilizer before planting peony is very important. It can be used as manure, cake fertilizer or compost. Fertilization is generally selected in the first ten days of October before flowering, mainly phosphate fertilizer; after flowering, cake fertilizer or compound fertilizer should be used, which is conducive to the next year's flowering; before overwintering, organic fertilizer is used, which is more helpful for the winter. Maintenance should pay attention to: water in time after fertilization. If the weather is dry, it needs to be done once a day, but no water can accumulate. During the period of fertilization, soil loosening and weeding can be combined to improve the growth environment of plants.

Fertilizer before flower:

Pre flowering fertilizer is generally applied in the first ten days of October. The fertilizer applied at this time has a great influence on the blooming of peony this year. There are many old hand tubes for raising flowers, which are called "promoting flower fertilizer". Fertilizer can be rotten cake fertilizer or phosphate fertilizer.

Fertilizer after flower:

Fertilizer after flowering is generally applied half a month after the peony blooms. The fertilizer applied at this time can increase the number of flowers. In particular, the second year of flowering has a direct link, such as the number of flowers, flower color, flower size and so on. Fertilizer can be rotten cake fertilizer or compound fertilizer.

Winter manure is put before winter. Usually with watering. This fertilization can also increase the temperature of the soil, which is very helpful for the peony to spend the winter. Fertilizer is mainly organic fertilizer.
